Change of qualifications and Reminder about Research and Creativity Grant Application



Greetings,

I would like to share that we have changed some of the qualifications for our grants for the spring.  In the past we had not included things like a creative product, a service  or an innovative business idea.  We are now open to anything that you are pursuing as a creative endeavor as a student here at RIT.  We are limited in the number of grants we give out each semester but we will consider all applications.  The only application we would not accept is one to attend a conference you are not presenting at. 

Our deadline is approaching, I hope to hear from you soon.
